The patient has difficulty in recognizing, naming, selecting, and differentiating the fingers of either of his hands or those of others.

It consists of 4 components: Agraphia or dysgraphia Acalculia or dyscalculia Finger agnosia Left-right disorientation Epidemiology Incidence It can occur in 2 basic forms. One is as a congenital or learning disorder. The other is as a feature of a stroke of the middle cerebral artery. Both forms are rare, but especially the childhood form. It can also be a feature of other neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease or as a result of head injury. The childhood type may occur in those with other brain damage or in isolation with otherwise good mental function. It does not seem to have a genetic component. It has been argued that developmental Gerstmann’s syndrome it is not a unique entity but a feature of other neurodevelopmental disorders . This has been disputed Risk Factors The affected area is the parietal lobe on the dominant side.
